July 21, 2008 – Stars and athletes hit up the 2008 ESPY Awards at the NOKIA Theatre in Los Angeles, California last week and the event was televised last night on ESPN.
Self-proclaimed sports junkie Justin Timberlake hosted the show and earned raves from the athletes and the viewers. Charming, irreverant and sexy as ever, when the Best Moment Award was given to members of the Central WA Softball Team for incredible sportsmanship, JT was fittingly carried off by university softball players.
Among the awards presented at the 2008 ESPYS:
Best Female Athlete/Best Female College Athlete: Candace Parker
Best Moment: Central Washington vs. Western Oregon Softball
Best Coach-Manager: Pat Summitt
Best Female International Athlete: Lorena Ochoa
Best WNBA Player: Lauren Jackson (Seattle Storm)
Best Female Action Sports Athlete: snowboarder Gretchen Bleiler
Best Female Tennis Player: Maria Sharapova
Recognizing major sports achievements, the ESPYs are determined by fans who vote online.
